Hi,

I made a Dos freeware game in 1997 (http://www.pasdeloup.net/duel/) but it doesn't perform really well with Windows XP.

A colleague told me about Dosbox, I tried it, and I'm really happy because thanks to it, my old game is playable again so Thank you. 😉

However, I would like to know if I can package Dosbox and my game together on my website. Of course, I'll keep every files (documentation, licence, ... ) and I'll mention "packaged with dosBox on the link".

Do you think that it's possible ?

I do not see why this isn't possible.
So go ahead. be sure to mention where to get dosbox. (incase somebody wants a newer version or wants the source).
I don't think that packaging it with dosbox places your program under GPL. But you might have to look that up
